Husband's General Notes
KYLE
The Kyle family in historic times centered, in County Ayr in southwestern Scotland, probably coming originally from the European mainland. One legend has it that there was an ancient progenitor who lived on the Rhine.
There is a family tradition that the Kyle's were related in marriage in the early days with the Campbell clan of Inverness through a subsidiary Campbell branch known as the clan Chattary.
There is a little town in County Ayr named Coylton, as well as a small stream named Kyll, and persons of the name Kyle still live in the county. Some branches of the family moved to England and it may be that some of that name came to England and Scotland during the Norman Conquest.
From the earliest records the Kyle's were strong Presbyterians for the most part. Politically, they were mainly Whigs in England and remained so in America in the early generations.
It was probably after 1606 and the defeat of the Earl of Tyrone (the "King of Ulster"), when James I took the estates of the rebellious followers of Tyrone and parceled them out to his own loyal followers, that the Kyle's first arrived in Ireland, though it was not until Cromwell's time that permanent migrations took place.
Old records refer to three Kyle brothers--Robert, James, and William--who fought under Cromwell to uphold Protestantism. They were rewarded with lands in County Tyrone, near "Derrig Waters" and at "Brackey Mills".
William stood fast to the Church of England, being an Anglican minister and a Judge of the Court of County Tyrone. He was known as "Tory Will Kyle". He was buried under the pulpit of the Church (where is the church located?) and a stone inserted in the gable end of the church, just behind the pulpit, and a statue was erected in the church bearing his-coat of arms.
Another group of Kyles in Tyrone claim to be the older immigrants from Scotland. These Kyles have extensive property at Brakey and Moranbeg, and in Castlederg Church there is a stone bearing the original coat of arms--three alter candlesticks.
Emma Kyle Burleson, daughter of Albert Sidney Burleson (Postmaster General of the U.S. from 1913-1921). of Texas, did much research on the Xyle's in London in 1911. Her information seems to refer to the same three brothers mentioned earlier, although instead of William, the brother's name is John.
According to Miss Burleson, the Kyle brothers arrived in Ireland 1675, James settling in Mournebeg, John in Brakey (both in County Tyrone), and Robert in Dungiven, County Londonderry. They probably came from Scotland proper, although some believe they may have lived in England for a while first, based mainly on the fact that they belonged to the Church of England rather than to the Presbyterian Church. Kyle, of Belfast, who corresponded with Miss Burleson, photographed a monument in the wall of Castlederg Church, then in ruins, located about ten miles from Mournbeg. The monument was erected by John Kyle for his brother Robert in 1759 (perhaps this should read 1659 ??).
Records of the Chancery Courts of Belfast show John and Robert in Mournebeg prior to 1683. Tax rolls of the area show no Kyles living there before 1660.
The first Kyles to come to America from that locality were David and Robert "of Old Albemarle". Sons of John mentioned above. A third son, William, did not leave Ireland. He married Margaret McKelvey and spent 22 years in the British Navy.
John of Brakey also had two daughters: Margaret, who never married; and Mary, who married Samuel Johnson. Samuel drowned on his way to America. Their children: John, who became a purser in the U.S. Navy; Samuel, who died in the U.S.; and a daughter.
David and Robert left unmarried, exact date unknown, but probably not until after 1700. Sometime later, their cousins, James and David, sons of Robert of Dungiven, mentioned above, also left for America.
David settled in Rockingham County, VA, but James returned to Ireland and died there according to Jeremiah Kyle of Brakey Post Office, Six Mile Cross, County Tyrone, who received this information from his father-in-law John Kyle, then 98 years old (1911).
Robert "of Old Albemarle" and hid family are placed east of Charlottesville in the 1740's, in present-day Buckingham County, VA. When they arrived from Ireland is not certain. Some believe the arrived in Pennsylvania in 1722. If the latter is true, Robert's children were born in Virginia and not in Ireland.
Records in the Surveyor's Book at Charlottesville show a plot of 190 acres lying on the branches of David Creek, surveyed for Robert Kyle, October 7. 1749, signed Thomas Turpin. In 1761, this part of Albemarle became a part of Buckingham County. Albemarle records also show Robert was involved in other legal matters as well his purchase of 345 acres on Catawba Creek, headwaters of the James. James, in Botetourt County-on 8/18/1760, which he deeded to his sons Joseph and William in 1775. (The tract was purchased from Joshua Hadley, Orange County, NC, and was part of the 2880 acres granted to Benjamin Borden in 1740.) Robert died in Buckingham County circa 1775.
